Cessna 172 Procedures.Pdf Nice Air Operation Procedure Cessna 172 1 In The Beginning • Check how many hours remains for next 100 h inspection and check squawk before take airplane. • Perform pre-flight inspection using check list. Report to the front desk if you need fuel, oil or found some- thing need to be checked by mechanic. • If the hobbs meter doesn’t much with the one in the tach sheet, report to front desk or instructor before start the engine. • Pull out the airplane with tow bar before start the engine. Use tow bar by one hand and pull the airplane by other hand. After pull out, make sure tow bar is stored in the baggage compartment. • Do not grab the dash board or post to adjust the seat position. Grab the bottom of instrument panel or win- dow frame. • Grab the window frame to close the door. Do not use the black strap to close the door. • Use both hand to open the door. Sometimes the wind blow out the door. • Do not put anything on the dash board. It will make scratch on the window shield and affect magnetic com- pass deviation. • After secure the seat belt and shoulder harness, put the remaining belt in between the legs. • The toes must be kept at the bottom of the rudder pedal unless it is necessary to use the brake. Try to mini- mize the use of the brake during taxi. • Make tear drop entry and take #1 spot in run up area if possible to maximize the run up area. • Before landing, make sure toes don’t touch the brakes. • After landing, perform after landing check list. • After come back to the parking, keep airplane parallel to the center line. DO NOT TURN in the parking row. • Use tow bar to park the airplane. NEVER push the tail and move the airplane. Instructor must help the student to park the airplane. • Use securing check list. • If the hobbs meter stop in the middle of two numbers, take higher number. • If you find any deficiency, make entry in the squawk sheet and report to the front desk.

Copy Right Nice Air 2575 Robert Fowler Way, San Jose, CA 95148 Phone(408)729-3383 Nice Air Operation Procedure Cessna 172 4 Slow Flight Entry 1. Carburetor heat-On. 2. Throttle-1500 RPM, maintain altitude. As you reduce power, you should anticipate pitch down and yaw to the right Don’t watch tachom- eter needle to move from cruise to 1500RPM. Look at the horizon and cowling as you use peripheral vision. Adjust control pressure to avoid nose from dropping and adjust rudder to keep the heading constant. 3. Airspeed 80kt-Flap 10 70kt-Flap 20 60kt-Flap 30 The extension of flap cause nose to move up. If you allow it, you will gain altitude and airspeed decreases too quick. Anticipate this and you need to add slight forward pressure on the control wheel to avoid this. Watch horizon and cowling. Don’t fix your eyes on the airspeed indicator and the flap switch. After you set full flap, you need to apply back pressure to keep the altitude constant. 4. Airspeed 40kt-2000 RPM Add right rudder as you add power to compensate the left turning tendency. PTS require you to main- tain minimum controllable airspeed which is almost 35kt for C172. However, you need to be able to fly at any speed. Use trim. After this point, generally, pitch controls airspeed and power controls altitude. Remember the pitch attitude which gives you 35 kt. Climb Apply full power. Adjust pitch to maintain the airspeed. Add right rudder to maintain the heading. For level off, reduce power necessary to maintain the altitude. Adjust pitch to maintain the airspeed. Descent Reduce power as necessary. Adjust pitch to maintain the airspeed. Reduce right rudder to maintain the head- ing. For level off, add power necessary to maintain the altitude. Adjust pitch to maintain the airspeed. Add right rudder to compensate the left turning tendency. Turn Use 10 degrees bank. For the right turn, you need to use more right rudder because of the left turning tenden- cy. On the other hand, the left turn dose not require much left rudder. Just reduce right rudder a little bit. Recovery 1. Throttle-Full, maintain the altitude. Add right rudder to compensate the left turning tendency. Adjust pitch “gradually” to maintain the alti- tude. Don’t push nose down quickly. Pitch should be changed slowly from slow flight attitude(high) to cruise attitude(level). Look at the horizon and cowling as you scan the altimeter. 2. Carburetor heat-Off, Flap-20 3. Airspeed 60kt-Flap 10 4. Airspeed 70kt-Flap Up The flap retraction cause the nose to move down. You need to anticipate and add back pressure as necessaryto maintain the altitude. As airspeed increases, you don’t need much right rudder anymore. Reduce right rudder as needed. 5. Airspeed 80kt-Throttle CruiseReturn to cruise flight. Use trim. Copy Right Nice Air 2575 Robert Fowler Way, San Jose, CA 95148 Phone(408)729-3383 Nice Air Operation Procedure Cessna 172 5 Power Off Stall Entry 1. Carb heat-On 2. Throttle-1500 RPM Maintain altitude 3. Airspeed 80kt-Flap 10 70kt-Flap 20 60kt-Flap 30 1 through 3 are same as slow flight. 4. Start descend at 60 kt 5. Throttle-Idle Increase back pressure to keep altitude to reach stall. If you do this too gentle, it will not stall because the airflow over the elevator is too slow to create enough tail down force to cause stall. Recovery 1. Release back pressure. You don’t need to push nose down too steep. 2. Throttle-Full, Maintain level flight attitude. Don’t look inside the cockpit. Your right hand is already on the throttle. Just move it forward. Look horizon and cowling. Adjust control pressure to establish level flight attitude. 3. Carb heat-Off, Flap-20 After retract the flap to 20, return your right hand on the throttle. Wait for the airspeed to increase as you maintain level flight attitude. 4. Airspeed 60kt(Vx), Climb attitude Look at horizon and the cowling to establish normal climb attitude. And wait. 5. Positive climb-Flap 10 Avoid pitch change caused by flap retraction. 6. Airspeed 73kt(Vy)-Flap Up 7. Level off, Airspeed 80kt-Throttle Cruise Copy Right Nice Air 2575 Robert Fowler Way, San Jose, CA 95148 Phone(408)729-3383 Nice Air Operation Procedure Cessna 172 6 Power On Stall Entry 1. Carb heat-On 2. Throttle-1500 RPM Maintain altitude 3. Airspeed 55kt-Throttle Full, Carburetor heat-Off, Climb attitude (slightly higher than normal climb at- titude) No need to pull nose up very high. If the nose is too high, it will drop a lot and lose excessive altitude after stall. To avoid this, maintain the pitch slightly higher than normal climb attitude at which air- speed is decreasing gradually(about 15 degrees up). Add back pressure to keep this pitch attitude con- stant as airspeed decrease. Look at the horizon on the both side of the cowling to judge your attitude. Also, add right rudder as airspeed goes down to keep coordinate. Recovery 1. Release back pressure 2. Maintain level flight attitude. Release back pressure gently to return to the level pitch. Wait for the airspeed to increase. 3. Airspeed 60kt(Vx), Climb attitude 4. Positive climb-Airspeed 73kt(Vy)-Level off. Since the power on stall is the simulation of the departure stall, the altitude you begin this maneuver is the airport elevation. During recovery, you shouldn’t go below the original altitude. If you do so, that mean you crash on the ground.

  • Aircraft Engine Analyzer - Best Engine Monitors to Keep Your Engine Healthy, Efficient & Safe
    Oct 25, 2017 02:36 EDT Aircraft Engine Analyzer - Best Engine Monitors To Keep Your Engine Healthy, Efficient & Safe It’s uncommon for an aircraft engine to simply just stop working; there’s a reason or there’s a chain of events that cause a mechanical breakdown. There are certain components of the engine that fails and cause power loss. The most common ones are the crankshaft, main bearings, pistons, cylinders, magnetos and the connecting rods. Usually, the bottom portion of the engine is pretty sturdy and solid to withstand a lot. The top part of the engine which includes the pistons, cylinders, valves, gears, etc. is a lot less sturdy. This is where the engine analyzer comes in handy. It does its part in catching problems with these more at risk components early on to save the engine from a bigger and more expensive destruction. An engine having a fix up as many times possible is common and many of the components aren't replaced. This means they have to tolerate many TBOs (time between overhauls). If these components happen to fail, they usually do so early on in their life from either being defective or overheating. The best type of analyzers are the ones that do long-term performance logging and allows data to be downloaded. Technicians can then create reports from this raw data. These reports are useful to look at and provide a visual of the engine's condition. They also can show an in-depth look if something goes wrong or an accident happens. The best kind of Aircraft Engine Analyzer is the one that displays cylinder head temperature (CHT) and exhaust gas temperature (EGT) on all present cylinders.

    THE HOBBS METER THE RVATOR FOURTH ISSUE 20099 6,357 COMPLETED RVS Thirty-seven RVs participated in a formation demonstration at AirVenture 2009, celebrating Van’s 37th year at The Show. ROUND NUMBERS NUMBER ONE! The first customer-built RV-12 to fly left the ground Sept. 20, 2009, piloted by builder Brad Stiefvater of Salem, South Dakota. The event occurred just as we were posting this issue so complete coverage will have to wait until next time. NUMBER 100 The fledgling Light Sport Aircraft category reached an important milestone has been this summer when Van's RV-12 became the 100th LSA model to be approved according to the Light Aircraft Manufacturers Association (LAMA). NUMBER 200 We have no idea which RV-10 was the 200th to fly in chronological time, but the 200th to appear in the Hobbs Meter section of our website was serial 40473, built by Tom Gesele of West Islip, New York. “Holy Sh**, I love this plane!” Tom says, after making the first flight on August 14. N629RV is powered by an IO-540/Hartzell com- bination. Avionics include a 2 screen Grand Rapids EFIS, Garmin GNS-480 + GTX-330, Electronics International MVP-50, and TruTrak VSGV A/P. NUMBER 3000 RV-8 kit 83000 recently flew...well, it flew in a Cessna 180. Tom Carter recently flew from his home in Big Fork, MT to pick up an empennage kit for an RV-8. It will replace his F-16, which he had to give back to the government when he retired. When we rang up the order, it showed customer number 83000 — the 3000th empennage kit deliv- ered since the RV-8 was introduced in 1996.
